BSOD shortly after Power On - All works fine after restart
Hi guys,
I will try to be as fast as possible while giving all relevant information:
- Had this pc for 5 years, and it always worked fine.
- CPU Temperatures are around 38 idle - ~72 full load- Recently updated Win 7 to Win 10, then the trouble began to happen:
Blue screen each day at the first startup, a couple of minutes after reaching windows.
After restarting all works great, no more blue screen, no failure in benchmark software, etc.
It can happen in the same day if I leave the PC powered off for more than a couple of hours (~2 hrs min)
I tried the following:
- 12 hours of memtest => 0 Errors found
- Reinstalled windows 7 => BSOD occur next day (after also applying updates)
- Updated drivers to the best of my knowledge (from Asus website and from Device Manager -> Search for driver online) => didnt change anything.
- Removed ram pieces, wiped the dust of MB and ram pieces, re-adjusted ram pieces
- Checked all cable connections inside the case
- Extensive Prime 95 benchmarking => no failure
- Used old, guaranteed to work, GPU driver => still BSOD under same conditions
- Increased / Decreased voltages of CPU and Ram => BSOD when too low voltage (of course) and same symptoms when enough voltage
- Changed the BIOS battery => changed nothing
- Approached VooDoo techniques in a shy yet optimistically manner => no help
The error codes of the BSOD are always different so I dont know what to make of this.
Any ideas or similar problems?
Thanks for your time.
